Day 2 Giveaway!

So I hope you are enjoying these giveaways! Birthday's are supposed to be all about fun. What is more fun then Grumpy Cat????

Today I had the pleasure of doing a Writing Workshop lesson in a 1st grade classroom. It was great being back in the classroom and seeing the kiddos really getting it. We worked on small moments and telling that moment across your fingers. It is amazing to me how this small strategy helps kids focus on their one moment. We went to the zoo last week and that was my model story. As I was conferencing with a student he shared that he wrote about the zoo trip too! My favorite part was when we went to see the elephants and they were in the pond of water...Completely under water!!!!! Caleb's favorite part was riding on the charter bus hahaha! He described the comfortable seats, the nice foot rest and the cozy arm rests! Its crazy how kids see things!

Alright enough talk about teaching, lets get to the giveaway! Today's prize is Gina's awesome

I don't know about best but for most hilarious a few years ago I went out to dinner with a bunch of my friends. My dear friend had her little one, who was 2 at the time with her. He was sitting in my lap when they brought out a birthday dessert for me. Everyone started singing to me and he started crying his eyes out!
